I don't really watch Star Wars. I'm a more of a Trekkie gal.

See, you can separate files both ways as long as it's logical

Specifying paths with - would be its own special brand of hell.

Times change. You used to not be able to run Linux in Windows, but you can do that too.

Thanks be to God

If you know what a nordic keyboard layout looks like, you'd probably prefer backslash. Since I moved to Linux a year ago I've been struggling to find the easiest way to forward slash. Shift + 7? Or numpad / with my right pinky?

Get a macro pad and configure one button to type a forward slash.

How do you type URLs using that keyboard layout?

[โ€“] RedSnt@feddit.dk 5 points 15 hours ago

Shift+7 feels wrong for some reason, so I currently tend to just send my pinky on a kamikaze mission towards the numpad hoping I hit /. Sometimes I hit numlock, sometimes I hit *.
Even if I made a compose key "shortcut" via ~/.XCompose it'd still be more work than what I'm doing already.

Macro pad could be a solution, I have considered it beforehand for other purposes tbh
